https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/General-Discussion/What-is-the-difference-between-the-HFG10-and-the-HFG20/m-p/16341#M19618 <P>I have searched for so long and to no avail. Googling has uncovered nothing. Can someone PLEASE explain the difference between the Canon HFG10 and the HFG20?! Is it NTSC and PAL? Is the hf10 the older model? I'm using an HV40 at the moment, and I am looking to upgrade to either an hfg10 (or hfg20) or an xa10. Thanks for the help!</P> Mon, 04 Mar 2013 19:59:40 GMT sergeatnslander 2013-03-04T19:59:40Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/General-Discussion/What-is-the-difference-between-the-HFG10-and-the-HFG20/m-p/16341#M19618 <P>I have searched for so long and to no avail.
